1. Remove accessible water

   The extraction technician pulls standing water from the kitchen surface and accessible floor edges. In Kent, the source trade addresses the failed appliance or connection.

2. Map the wet materials

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Kent crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment remains in place according to measured conditions, not a fixed calendar. The technician records final results for the Kent owner.

• Keep cleaning chemicals away from standing water if they can be moved safely.
• Photograph swelling, stains and the position of water before cleanup.
